Founder of BallaLoco®
Dance and music have accompanied me like a red thread through my life since childhood. They gave me anchorage in challenging times – growing up in different countries and through periods of personal crisis. For me, dancing was always more than expression – it was a source of strength, joy and healing.
“I created BallaLoco® to give every woman a space to feel energized, powerful and entirely herself.”
Early on I attended dance schools, took part in championships and later completed my training with DJ Bobo's choreographer. A heartfelt highlight was the training at renowned dance schools in New York. From hip-hop and house to street jazz and Latin American dances like salsa and samba – my passion for dance knew no limits and led me to keep developing myself.
In 2009 I discovered my love for the fitness world. As one of the first, I brought Zumba® to the Basel region and was known for a long time under the name Zumba Basel. In 2011 I was selected as a trainer (Zumba Educational Specialist) for the Swiss market. This role allowed me to train instructors across Switzerland and to perform on international stages – an experience I am still deeply grateful for.
After years in performance mode, my own burnout became a deep turning point. I began to explore personal development and holistic health intensively. These experiences opened up new perspectives and helped me rediscover inner strength, calm and joy of life.
In parallel, my own dance-fitness concept, BallaLoco®, came to life. After years of teaching, my back and knees began to hurt – and so the idea was born to combine dance with Pilates and an effective body workout: movement that not only strengthens the body but also brings joy. In the BallaLoco® Dance Workout I unite joy of life, lightness and inner strength.
My training as a breathwork therapist (2025) completes the puzzle and has lifted my work to a new level. It beautifully connects everything that has always moved me: body, emotion, energy and consciousness. It brings me great joy to share the benefits of this method and to accompany people on their path to inner balance and vitality – on all levels.
In my free time I love spending time with my family and friends, losing myself in a good book, or simply enjoying a coffee in the sun. I find calm in the sound of the sea, inspiration in encounters – and joy in the small moments of life.
No subscription. Come whenever it fits your week and pay at the studio — cash or Twint.
Drop in any Monday or Thursday. No booking ahead, no commitment — just show up and move.
Five classes that build one full choreography together. You pay once for the whole course.
For Dance Workout: no experience needed. You can simply follow the dance moves — and if a step doesn't work out, you can easily adapt it and dance it the way you feel it in that moment. What counts here is the joy of moving — not perfect execution. 🙂 For Dance Fusion, it's an advantage if dancing isn't a foreign word to you, since we build up a choreography over the block. Beginners are still very welcome — but a feel for rhythm is appreciated 🙂
All classes currently take place in Basel at Eulerstrasse 55.
Whatever you feel comfortable moving in — regular sportswear is perfect. For all classes, bring indoor training shoes with clean soles, a towel and water.
Simply on site — cash or Twint, before or after class. No subscription, no contract. Dance Workout 25 CHF per class, trial class 15 CHF, Dance Fusion 125 CHF for the 5-class block.
For Dance Workout you can simply show up without registering — so there's nothing to cancel. You're flexible and can be totally spontaneous. For Dance Fusion, it's best not to miss a class in the block, because we build up a choreography from week to week.
For Dance Workout you can simply drop by — a quick message is still appreciated so Nicole knows you're coming. For Dance Fusion, please register in advance since the places for the 5-week block are limited.
Choose your class, leave your details and send your registration — Nicole will get back to you.
